Primary Links of Interest to Students

New! Project #2 Instructions have arrived!
Chapter 32. This is on the CD that comes with your book. You need to have Acrobat Reader installed to view it.
You can use Notepad for this class but I highly recommend NoteTab Light, a free but very useful plain text editor.
Mozilla 1.x Browser Download Page. Mozilla is the open source browser that forms the foundation of Netscape 6.0 and various other browsers. You will need test your work in this browser and IE. You may also test in Netscape 6.x because it is essentially the same thing.
Internet Explorer Download Page (select Internet Explorer from list of downloads). If you install IE 6 it is also important to install the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) too. For marketing reasons (and some say illegal anticompetitive reasons) Microsoft did not include the latest JVM in this version of the browser.
W3Schools in an excellent tutorial web site that you can use to supplement your knowledge of the topics covered here. Note that there are specific sections for HTML, XHTML, Cascading Style Sheets, Javascript, Dynamic HTML and Active Server Pages as well as other web technologies. Previous students have raved about this site.
